Those three Barclays Premier League games coming your way as well as | :01:37. | :01:44. | |
action from yesterday, debris's Goal of the Month and reaction to | :01:44. | :01:51. | |
the departure of AVB from Chelsea. Alan Shearer joins our constant | :01:51. | :01:57. | |
source of light and inspiration, Lee Dixon. We start at White Hart | :01:57. | :02:01. | |
Lane with the Spurs against Manchester United. The wheels have | :02:01. | :02:07. | |
come off Tottenham's title Page. Two wins in the last six has stop | :02:07. | :02:12. | |
their momentum. Last week they looked all set to beat Arsenal but | :02:12. | :02:18. | |
then there was a derby day disaster. Today was a chance to a raise that | :02:18. | :02:23. | |
nightmare. Led by the Dad's Army duo of Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes | :02:23. | :02:32. | |
you would not bet against United winning another crane. Last week, | :02:32. | :02:38. | |
Ryan Giggs popped up in injury-time to take the points. The dad are | :02:38. | :02:48. | |

Manchester United will win today. A look at the five. Gap between | :02:51. | :02:56. | |
Manchester United and City says that it would be a bad one for them | :02:56. | :03:05. | |
to lose. Scott Parker is suspended and van der Vaart is injured. Wayne | :03:05. | :03:15. | |
Rooney is back after his throat infection. After today, United's | :03:15. | :03:21. | |
next eight games are against teams outside this morning's top eight. | :03:21. | :03:31. | |
:03:31. | :03:52. | ||
The stakes are high on a freezing on this ground since Manchester | :03:52. | :04:02. | |
:04:02. | :04:25. | ||
City put five against them, back at good save by De Gea. The clearance | :04:25. | :04:35. | |
:04:35. | :05:14. | ||
area. There will be a card here. The first of the game, for Phil | :05:14. | :05:24. | |
:05:24. | :05:59. | ||
corner Andy used to be Teddy Sheringham who got on the end of | :05:59. | :06:09. | |
:06:09. | :06:24. | ||
But it is ruled out for hand ball. Market -- Martin Atkinson says No | :06:24. | :06:29. | |
goal. It probably would have gone in had Adebayor not been standing | :06:29. | :06:36. | |
there. There was the faintest of touches against his arm. | :06:36. | :06:39. | |
Inadvertently, Adebayor got in the way and the referee says he used | :06:39. | :06:43. | |
his arm to bring it under control before flicking it into the back of | :06:43. | :06:53. | |
:06:53. | :06:53. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :06:53. | :07:46. | |
the net. A big part of the cheeks what Manchester United do! Wayne | :07:46. | :07:51. | |
Rooney, with 30 seconds of the first half to go, a straightforward | :07:51. | :08:01. | |
:08:01. | :08:03. | ||
goal. Big questions to answer in the Tottenham defence here. Wayne | :08:03. | :08:13. | |
:08:13. | :08:35. | ||
Rooney put them in front. A broad That is a save and a half from De | :08:35. | :08:45. | |
:08:45. | :09:07. | ||
and it is a free kick. The pace is unrelenting and the tackles and | :09:07. | :09:17. | |
:09:17. | :09:17. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :09:17. | :10:21. | |
last half an hour of this game could be epic. Young! 2-0, | :10:21. | :10:26. | |
Manchester United! Ashley Young scores the goal that put clear blue | :10:26. | :10:35. | |
water between them and spares. It comes against the run of play. But | :10:35. | :10:41. | |
again, Manchester United absolutely clinical, as Tottenham were | :10:41. | :10:50. | |
underwear from the throw-in. Danny could not be offside from the | :10:50. | :11:00. | |
:11:00. | :11:00. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :11:00. | :12:10. | |
attacking in this game but three up at White Hart Lane, with a | :12:10. | :12:16. | |
goal from the very top drawer. Special, special moment from Ashley | :12:17. | :12:23. | |
Young. They have been given a stiff examination by Tottenham Hotspur | :12:23. | :12:30. | |
today have Manchester United but they have had composure, confidence, | :12:30. | :12:40. | |
:12:40. | :13:03. | ||
world that has a good record against Manchester United but | :13:03. | :13:12. | |
recently it is pretty dismal for Tottenham. That is what Jermaine | :13:12. | :13:22. | |
:13:22. | :13:23. | ||
Defoe does so often. Sloppy from Manchester United, given away. It | :13:23. | :13:28. | |
seemed all too easy for Jermaine Defoe to put the ball in the back | :13:28. | :13:35. | |
of the net. It was not deflected. It has not been an easy afternoon | :13:35. | :13:39. | |
for Harry Redknapp. This was a stroll for United as | :13:39. | :13:42. | |
they keep the heat on City. The Blues' lead is again back to two | :13:42. | :13:44. | |
points. As for Spurs, they simply had no answer, suffering again | :13:44. | :13:52. | |
against a side they haven't beaten since 2001. We will one - nil down | :13:52. | :13:58. | |
at half-time, it was soul- destroying to see them score, they | :13:58. | :14:03. | |
created nothing. Make no mistake, they are a good side but we made | :14:03. | :14:11. | |
them look ordinary. They just overran us at times and | :14:11. | :14:17. | |
it is a miracle we were 1 - nil at half-time. What we're thoughts | :14:17. | :14:20. | |
about the goal that was disallowed? I thought it was harsh, it should | :14:20. | :14:28. | |
have stood. And the second one was that saved. That was a fantastic | :14:28. | :14:34. | |
save and it was a turning point. You have to defend better than we | :14:34. | :14:41. | |
did. From where I was it looked as if it was going in. Did you feel | :14:41. | :14:50. | |
the same? I think so. When I hit it I felt that it was going in. One of | :14:50. | :14:57. | |
your better goals. It is always nice to get on the scoresheet. But | :14:57. | :15:00. | |
it was a good team performance and we got those three points in the | :15:00. | :15:05. | |
we got those three points in the end. | :15:05. | :15:15. | |
:15:15. | :15:15. | ||
Whitehead phones?! -- wipe their head phones?! The referee, I | :15:15. | :15:25. | |
believe that he got it right. Lennon goes past Jones. It comes | :15:25. | :15:30. | |
straight enough frump Louis Saha. Adebayor doing his best to try to | :15:30. | :15:35. | |
Adebayor doing his best to try to get out of the way. I know that is | :15:35. | :15:44. | |
not deliberate, but it came down on to his hand. And I think the | :15:44. | :15:48. | |
referee gets it right. It definitely does hit his hand. The | :15:48. | :15:54. | |
letter of the law actually says that handball has to be deliberate. | :15:54. | :15:59. | |
But rarely do you actually do that anyway. And if that was a defender | :15:59. | :16:03. | |
on the line trying to stop it in the same circumstances I am pretty | :16:03. | :16:09. | |
sure that the referee would give it. The word deliberate was taken out | :16:09. | :16:19. | |
:16:19. | :16:22. | ||
of almost every feedlot law. -- FIFA. Apart from the hand ball. But | :16:23. | :16:28. | |
it is not really applicable. I lost count of how many penalties I gave | :16:28. | :16:34. | |
away with handball. Probably just two of those were deliberate, the | :16:34. | :16:39. | |
rest of them accidental. But you know it is going to be a penalty. | :16:39. | :16:44. | |
And I think it is the same with that one, the referee has to | :16:44. | :16:53. | |
disallow it. Using Keady is the right decision? I think in fairness | :16:53. | :16:56. | |
it should be disallowed but the letter of the law says it has to be | :16:57. | :17:05. | |
deliberate. Now Manchester United, five shots on target. Well | :17:06. | :17:12. | |
Tottenham were superb, they put Manchester United to the sword at | :17:12. | :17:16. | |
times and outplayed them in midfield. But today they got it | :17:16. | :17:23. | |
perfectly right. But ultimately they were undone by a couple of set | :17:23. | :17:28. | |
pieces. Harry Redknapp will be really disappointed. Walker and | :17:28. | :17:36. | |
Rooney, there is already space in front of Wayne Rooney. There is | :17:36. | :17:43. | |
that space. He has got his hands on his hips, Walker, not ready for the | :17:43. | :17:50. | |
moves that an experienced player like Wayne Rooney gives him. This | :17:50. | :17:55. | |
one is even worse. When you get the winner behind the full-back | :17:55. | :18:00. | |
defending Europe in all kinds of trouble. -- you are in it all kinds | :18:00. | :18:10. | |
:18:10. | :18:11. | ||
of trouble. And that space, and it really is schoolboy stuff. This is | :18:11. | :18:21. | |
a brilliant finish. Great technique. And they were undone by then. | :18:21. | :18:23. | |
Undone by a really poor defending when they had played so well as | :18:23. | :18:32. | |
well. That drives managers not so, because those set pieces are so | :18:32. | :18:37. | |
vitally important that throughout the season. The number of goals | :18:37. | :18:42. | |
scored and conceded from set pieces is astounding. It is a big lesson | :18:42. | :18:47. | |
for Kyle Walker anyway, he is a promising player and that will be a | :18:47. | :18:52. | |
big lesson to him. Standing with his hands on his hips, not ready | :18:52. | :18:57. | |
for the shot. And if you know your winner is marking behind you for me | :18:57. | :19:02. | |
that is a warning sign. I want him in front. The performance was there | :19:02. | :19:07. | |
but it is the business of results. What is going on with Tottenham | :19:07. | :19:14. | |
Hotspur's at the moment? For me I think it was telling, Parker was | :19:14. | :19:20. | |
not there today. Rafael Van Der Vaart was not there. But when they | :19:20. | :19:29. | |
have got their full team, the lads did pretty well, but without Gareth | :19:29. | :19:36. | |
Bale and Parker then they are a different team. | :19:36. | :19:40. | |
Well that's take a look at where we stand in terms of points at the | :19:40. | :19:49. | |
moment. The fixtures are coming up. The thing with United, I think it | :19:49. | :19:55. | |
is easier to chase them to be chased. City are two points ahead | :19:55. | :20:00. | |
of them. They have some big games, the Chelsea game, the Arsenal game. | :20:00. | :20:05. | |
United have an extra game at home but they have to go away to | :20:05. | :20:14. | |
Manchester City. I think it will boil down to that. I do not think | :20:14. | :20:20. | |
there will be many points dropped at all. It is all set up for that | :20:20. | :20:27. | |
Derby game. Swansea at home are fantastic. They cannot win it. | :20:27. | :20:34. | |
Right, before we move on, let's get all our ducks in a row. | :20:34. | :20:40. | |
We're in West London for Fulham against Wolves. | :20:40. | :20:45. | |
We'll show you the best action and incidents from yesterday. | :20:45. | :20:47. | |
We'll bring you February's goal of the month and the saves of the | :20:47. | :20:53. | |
season. Plus, who next for the permanent | :20:53. | :20:59. | |
Chelsea hotseat as Andrea Villas- Boas goes bye-bye. | :20:59. | :21:01. | |
Now, back to Sunday's highlights and it's often said that modern day | :21:01. | :21:04. | |
football lacks a little bit of the old school bite that many fans want | :21:04. | :21:14. | |
to see on a football pitch. Feast your eyes on this. Alan Pardew and | :21:14. | :21:18. | |
Martin O'Neill have put the sunshine back into North East | :21:18. | :21:28. | |
:21:28. | :21:32. | ||
football. They are set to bring the European football back to Newcastle. | :21:32. | :21:39. | |
O'Neill has won seven since taking charge. He worked his black cats | :21:39. | :21:45. | |
magic and Sunderland had lost the last two. Nothing like a Derby Day | :21:45. | :21:51. | |
to return to top form. Quite simply there's nothing like | :21:51. | :21:57. | |
the Derby, not in this part of the world. The week has all been about | :21:57. | :22:01. | |
the build up too high noon in Newcastle. The team is the same | :22:01. | :22:11. | |
:22:11. | :22:11. | ||
that Throwley Way a two-goal lead to draw up against Wolves last week. | :22:11. | :22:21. | |
:22:21. | :22:58. | ||
wins to three. But it is the sort of game that is just about | :22:58. | :23:08. | |
:23:08. | :23:11. | ||
impossible to call. But it was a certainty that Lee Cattermole and | :23:11. | :23:21. | |
:23:21. | :23:21. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :23:21. | :24:18. | |
Cheick Tiote were going to get we go. The manager having words as | :24:18. | :24:28. | |
:24:28. | :25:06. | ||
had not had a caution all season before this. It is a penalty. | :25:06. | :25:13. | |
Sunderland have the chance to take the lead in front of a stunned St | :25:13. | :25:21. | |
James's Park. There is little doubt when you see it slowed down by that. | :25:21. | :25:29. | |
Nicklas Bendtner has hardly set the world on fire, of what about now? | :25:29. | :25:35. | |
This could be the making of him as a Sunderland player. He has got the | :25:35. | :25:45. | |
:25:45. | :25:46. | ||
Derby going and Sunderland lead in Newcastle. He has given Sunderland | :25:46. | :25:56. | |
:25:56. | :25:56. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :25:56. | :26:41. | |
supporters were saying before the game but this could be the game for | :26:41. | :26:51. | |
:26:51. | :26:51. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :26:51. | :29:09. | |
home supporters, just one minute Now there are few more angry | :29:09. | :29:19. | |
:29:19. | :29:37. | ||
caught Tiote, and he is off! A look of disbelief is written across the | :29:37. | :29:46. | |
face of Mike Dean. I have to say it is a pretty pathetic punch, or | :29:46. | :29:56. | |
:29:56. | :30:14. | ||
swing of the arm. The reaction of Mignolet was ready when the moment | :30:14. | :30:24. | |
:30:24. | :30:40. | ||
rash. Newcastle United get the penalty and there is a bit of a | :30:40. | :30:45. | |
reaction on the touchline as well. Martin O'Neill has to be pressed | :30:45. | :30:55. | |
:30:55. | :31:06. | ||
away. Fraizer Campbell has only and four goals all season. But | :31:06. | :31:16. | |
:31:16. | :31:29. | ||
Mignolet saves! Corner for just wide! Another corner! He | :31:29. | :31:39. | |
:31:39. | :32:01. | ||
stepped off his line, they always is just something about the Derby | :32:01. | :32:11. | |
:32:11. | :32:19. | ||
that brings out the best in Shola William son and Ameobi got enough | :32:19. | :32:27. | |
contact on the ball to beat Mignolet. Quite incredible. He has | :32:27. | :32:32. | |
not scored since October. He ends the drought against the team he has | :32:32. | :32:38. | |
scored more goals against than any other. His 7th time where Derby | :32:38. | :32:48. | |
:32:48. | :32:48. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :32:48. | :33:31. | |
for another tempestuous Derby. For Newcastle United and Alan Pardew, | :33:31. | :33:40. | |
that will feel like a win. And it has not ended on the final whistle, | :33:40. | :33:44. | |
because Lee Cattermole just kept on chatting to the referee and he has | :33:44. | :33:54. | |
:33:54. | :33:59. | ||
been dismissed. The captain, sent then! What a match, only two goals | :33:59. | :34:08. | |
but the tackles were full-blooded I was a little disappointed in the | :34:08. | :34:11. | |
first of because we seem to get wrapped up in what seemed to be a | :34:11. | :34:17. | |
game plan by Sunderland. I thought it was ugly. It was strong, | :34:17. | :34:20. | |
patriotic, vitriolic, all the things you expect from the derby of | :34:20. | :34:28. | |
this nature. In actual fact I have to say that I'm was enjoying it, | :34:28. | :34:32. | |
perhaps in a perverse way. Do you have a clue what you did when the | :34:32. | :34:37. | |
penalty was awarded when the goal went in. I have just seen it and I | :34:37. | :34:41. | |
have not covered myself in glory, but I just felt it was a bit of | :34:41. | :34:46. | |
justice. I was really angry that so many physical challenges that would | :34:46. | :34:54. | |
going in there were a necessary. came off the bench a goal down, and | :34:54. | :34:58. | |
the man just to go and grab the goal. It is something that in the | :34:58. | :35:05. | |
past I have been able to do in the past against Sunderland. We had | :35:05. | :35:07. | |
words on the side and he is passionate for his team and I'm | :35:07. | :35:13. | |
passionate about my team and its bills over. It would be carried on. | :35:13. | :35:18. | |
It will be dead and buried tonight as far as I'm concerned. Until next | :35:18. | :35:28. | |
:35:28. | :35:28. | ||
Interesting watching that derby match with you, Alan, although you | :35:28. | :35:33. | |
were not much of a screamer. thought it was a fantastic game | :35:33. | :35:41. | |
with everything you would want of a Derby. Great atmosphere. I have to | :35:41. | :35:47. | |
say that I thought Sunderland were the better team can the first half. | :35:47. | :35:51. | |
Their game plan worked. One of the reasons for that was because | :35:51. | :35:57. | |
Newcastle found it very difficult to get the ball up to the front men. | :35:57. | :36:02. | |
Certainly, when they have done that, it came straight back, they were | :36:02. | :36:12. | |
:36:12. | :36:23. | ||
not able to get hold of it. That link-up play. Another one here. | :36:23. | :36:29. | |
Gutierrez is trying to support Demba Ba but there is a poor touch | :36:29. | :36:33. | |
once again. Again the ball into Gutierrez. You tell me what the | :36:33. | :36:39. | |
Ford is supposed to do with that. Again, it is straight back to | :36:39. | :36:46. | |
Sunderland. But, second half, first minute, first quality ball in to | :36:46. | :36:49. | |
Cisse. Look at the movement of Demba Ba in the middle of the | :36:49. | :36:55. | |
screen. In 218 Fred, he turns, and that is the first minute of the | :36:55. | :37:04. | |
second half -- in took Demba Ba. They went on to dominate the second | :37:04. | :37:12. | |
half from that and Ben Arfa played his part. Sessegnon for Sunderland | :37:12. | :37:17. | |
was the one player causing problem but Ben Arfa did that in the second | :37:17. | :37:22. | |
half. For Sunderland it might be wrong to pull out one player over | :37:22. | :37:29. | |
another because it was all about 11 men. They had again plan and | :37:29. | :37:33. | |
Cattermole was at the heart of it at the beginning. They stop the | :37:33. | :37:38. | |
ball up to the front men of Newcastle very well. But they | :37:38. | :37:45. | |
stopped Newcastle playing and it was a real team effort. This ball | :37:45. | :37:52. | |
gets played in and the midfield of Sunderland. Cut more will trot back | :37:52. | :38:02. | |
:38:02. | :38:04. | ||
and stop the ball into the front man. -- Cattermole. They threw | :38:04. | :38:08. | |
everything at Newcastle, they defended in numbers, threw | :38:08. | :38:18. | |
:38:18. | :38:18. | ||
themselves at blocking shots. This time, as the ball is switched over | :38:18. | :38:27. | |
to bomb Polly, watched Larsson helping out. They double up on the | :38:27. | :38:37. | |
:38:37. | :38:47. | ||
put to shifting. Turner, a great header out, and they were unlucky | :38:47. | :38:56. | |
with the follow-up. The goalkeeper was involved. He was part of the | :38:56. | :39:00. | |
defending. Overall, it was a great team effort from Sunderland but | :39:00. | :39:09. | |
Newcastle played a lot better in the second half. Let us go on to | :39:09. | :39:18. | |
the referee, and controversially be would give in 9.5 out of 10. Hugely | :39:18. | :39:22. | |
difficult game to referee. This was the first 20 seconds and you could | :39:22. | :39:25. | |
say that was a red card but he gives a yellow. This was a penalty | :39:25. | :39:31. | |
that hardly any of us saw until we see the replay. He spotted | :39:31. | :39:36. | |
Williamson pulling back on the shirt. I'm not so sure about this | :39:36. | :39:42. | |
one. I am not sure. But he certainly gets this one right with | :39:42. | :39:52. | |
:39:52. | :39:52. | ||
Fraizer Campbell on Shola Ameobi. And this one here from Sessegnon is | :39:52. | :39:59. | |
just stupid. He had no choice but to send him off. He is closing him | :39:59. | :40:05. | |
down and the arm comes out and swings. It is right in front of the | :40:05. | :40:10. | |
referee. And Cattermole, who apart from the first 25 seconds was | :40:10. | :40:13. | |
brilliant, kept on after the game and gave the referee no choice but | :40:13. | :40:22. | |
He passed his cheeks out at the end of the game as if to say thank | :40:22. | :40:30. | |
fully that is over. A player said something to him well done for | :40:30. | :40:37. | |
getting through it and he said I am exhausted! Apart from the red cards | :40:37. | :40:43. | |
and the normal disciplinary, Martin O'Neill and Alan Pardew shook hands | :40:43. | :40:48. | |
after. I hope they are no repercussions. I do not think there | :40:48. | :40:51. | |
will be. They are experienced managers and we saw them shaking | :40:51. | :40:58. | |
hands. Goal of the Month still to come plus the says of the season | :40:58. | :41:03. | |
and all of yesterday's action. Fulham welcomed Wolverhampton | :41:03. | :41:13. | |
:41:13. | :41:13. | ||
Wanderers to the banks of the Thames. Fulham have enjoyed a gay | :41:13. | :41:19. | |
old time in 2012, moving up the table and looking good. They have | :41:19. | :41:23. | |
taken 13 points from a possible 21 and were aiming for a third | :41:23. | :41:32. | |
straight win. As for Wolves, Terry Connor is in charge and looking to | :41:32. | :41:39. | |
his opposite dribbles to get him out of trouble. He is the boss, he | :41:39. | :41:49. | |
:41:49. | :41:53. | ||
is the better for the championship, over a week but he has already had | :41:53. | :42:01. | |
plenty to chew on. Martin Jol has taken 15. From his last nine games | :42:01. | :42:05. | |
and in Pogrebynak he has acquired a striker who has played in both | :42:05. | :42:15. | |
:42:15. | :42:53. | ||
games that have taken place since hackle was a timely one. -- tackle. | :42:53. | :43:03. | |
:43:03. | :43:03. | ||
Tipped around the post by Wayne Hennessy. That is a really good | :43:03. | :43:13. | |
:43:13. | :43:13. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :43:13. | :44:29. | |
save. Everything looking a little shot took the merest of deflections | :44:29. | :44:36. | |
on the way through. At Pavel Pogrebnyak buries the header into | :44:36. | :44:46. | |
:44:46. | :45:20. | ||
the back of the walls that. -- dangers for Wolves. All of a sudden | :45:20. | :45:24. | |
it was three against three and one of those three was the deadly Pavel | :45:24. | :45:34. | |
:45:34. | :45:37. | ||
Pogrebnyak. Wolves had hung on for long periods of this first half. | :45:37. | :45:47. | |
:45:47. | :45:47. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :45:47. | :46:50. | |
three! He gets his 17th of the plan macro has himself a hat trick. | :46:50. | :47:00. | |
:47:00. | :47:08. | ||
It's just saved inevitable. -- Pavel Pogrebnyak. He just about | :47:08. | :47:18. | |
:47:18. | :47:54. | ||
in support. It was just off-target. The Fulham players really enjoying | :47:54. | :48:04. | |
:48:04. | :48:26. | ||
goal that is! Waiting for the right moment for the final pass and it | :48:26. | :48:36. | |
:48:36. | :48:39. | ||
came to Clint Dempsey. They just seemed to wait for the right | :48:39. | :48:49. | |
:48:49. | :48:49. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :48:49. | :49:38. | |
Terry Connor's second game as a Pogrebynak looks some player. A | :49:38. | :49:42. | |
hat-trick today means it's now five in three for the Russian. As for | :49:42. | :49:45. | |
Wolves, this hammering puts Terry Connor and his boys back in the | :49:45. | :49:52. | |
bottom three. They've got a tough job on to avoid the drop. | :49:52. | :49:56. | |
And you had a nice balance today, you were in control, everything | :49:56. | :50:04. | |
about the play exuded confidence. We played well and that is always | :50:04. | :50:12. | |
worrying. Even when we had believed we could not relax because they had | :50:12. | :50:17. | |
a few strikers on the bench as well will could hurt you. But it was | :50:17. | :50:22. | |
almost perfect. What did you say to the guys in the dressing room after | :50:22. | :50:28. | |
90 minutes today? After the West Brom game we suffered a defeat but | :50:28. | :50:34. | |
came back and took a positive result at Newcastle. We took the | :50:34. | :50:42. | |
defeat today but hopefully we can bounce back. He looks as strong, he | :50:42. | :50:51. | |
seems to have all the attributes necessary. He is the type of player | :50:51. | :50:57. | |
that we needed. It is a bit of a coincidence as well, as so many | :50:57. | :51:00. | |
strikers on the market. But he was strikers on the market. But he was | :51:00. | :51:06. | |
the right one for us. I'm sure if you're looking forward | :51:06. | :51:13. | |
to pronouncing that name! I thought he was great, I did the analysis on | :51:14. | :51:17. | |
him last week and was very impressed. And equally impressed | :51:17. | :51:23. | |
this week, he looks big, he looks strong. He runs into the channels, | :51:23. | :51:29. | |
he works hard. He is obviously enjoying his football. He came from | :51:29. | :51:37. | |
enjoying his football. He came from the German league in. I do not we | :51:37. | :51:47. | |
:51:47. | :51:48. | ||
know what will this would doing here. -- what Wolves were doing | :51:48. | :51:58. | |
:51:58. | :52:05. | ||
here. This is not as easy as it looks. There is such a thing as a | :52:05. | :52:13. | |
perfect hat-trick. Clint Dempsey has got two brothers | :52:13. | :52:19. | |
were also in the clowns as well. His second goal probably summed up | :52:19. | :52:29. | |
:52:29. | :52:31. | ||
the game. It did. It gets boring after a while if you do not speed | :52:31. | :52:38. | |
it up. Just keep your eye on how many players they have and they | :52:38. | :52:44. | |
have got nowhere near the ball. Look how many men forward that | :52:44. | :52:49. | |
Fulham have got, just four. And they walk past them as if they are | :52:49. | :52:56. | |
not there. Getting them back is not enough, you have to work the ball | :52:56. | :53:01. | |
as well. And that finish was superb. Wolves have got big problems at the | :53:02. | :53:11. | |
:53:12. | :53:13. | ||
back. That was all more or less down to defensive errors. | :53:13. | :53:18. | |
The home fixtures other stand-out ones. That is their chance to try | :53:18. | :53:21. | |
ones. That is their chance to try to pick up some points. | :53:21. | :53:24. | |
Right, a lot more to come tonight, but let's pause for a quick glance | :53:24. | :53:27. | |

Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :54:18. | :55:08. | |
Finished with that left foot, like a rocket. | :55:08. | :55:15. | |
Three in the middle here, what a chance. 25 seconds into the second | :55:15. | :55:25. | |
:55:25. | :55:36. | ||
half! Matta did not think twice! Grapeshot, what a goal! Fabulous | :55:36. | :55:46. | |
:55:46. | :56:13. | ||
strike by Mark Davies. Talk about a stopping that one. | :56:14. | :56:23. | |
Great effort. How about that? He opened his body up so he could | :56:23. | :56:33. | |
:56:33. | :56:51. | ||
equaliser. His control was good, at equaliser. His control was good, at | :56:51. | :56:58. | |
the finish explosive. I do not want to be accused of bias so I'm going | :56:58. | :57:05. | |
to go for Fraser Campbell of Sunderland. I spotted was a great | :57:05. | :57:13. | |
strike. A good touch to set it up. That is a tub skill to do that. | :57:13. | :57:19. | |
Duff. Not to be outdone, we'll be doffing | :57:19. | :57:23. | |
our cap to the keepers at the end of the show. But now to Cheslea and | :57:23. | :57:26. | |
the sacking of Andre Villas-Boas. His last match turned out to be at | :57:26. | :57:36. | |
:57:36. | :57:47. | ||
last June that he has seen his side win only three in the last 12. West | :57:47. | :57:51. | |
Brom were after their third successive victory for only the | :57:51. | :58:01. | |
:58:01. | :58:01. | ||
Apology for the loss of subtitles for 52 seconds | :58:01. | :58:57. | |
drug bit wide. -- and he has put it Cole. Lampard! Late drama at the | :58:57. | :59:04. | |
Hawthorns. And not the sort that Andre Villas-Boas wanted to see. | :59:04. | :59:09. | |
you think you will get another chance? His three wins enough for | :59:09. | :59:19. | |
:59:19. | :59:21. | ||
people to make that decision? The results had not been great, | :59:21. | :59:29. | |
there is no doubt about that, and he knew what he was getting into | :59:29. | :59:33. | |
when he took the job. But you do not go in expecting to any have | :59:33. | :59:38. | |
two-thirds of the season. Hit the remit for Roman Abramovich was to | :59:38. | :59:42. | |
evolve Chelsea into a new team with the younger manager any have to | :59:42. | :59:47. | |
give him time. He has not done that. His old crate of sacking the | :59:47. | :59:54. | |
manager after five minutes has come back. He be keep on doing that, | :59:54. | :00:04. | |
:00:04. | :00:05. | ||
they will never be successful. me out on that subject. They have | :00:05. | :00:10. | |
had European Cup's and even a World Cup winner, so what is wrong? | :00:10. | :00:13. | |
has been talk about him is picking the team more who is picking some | :00:13. | :00:21. | |
of the players to bring into the Ancelotti was sort of given some | :00:21. | :00:24. | |
players and, in the end, you have to play them. When somebody cost | :00:24. | :00:33. | |
�50 million, the manager has to play them. Also, be characters in | :00:33. | :00:38. | |
the dressing room. Yes, a hard dressing room to go into. I think | :00:38. | :00:43. | |
the players have not done him any favours. Iping should keep your own | :00:43. | :00:49. | |
counsel. Keep your mouth shut and try to get back in the side. The | :00:49. | :00:53. | |
think his with Chelsea, would it be refreshing it Roman Abramovich had | :00:53. | :00:58. | |
come out and said he is my man, we are changing, with it be his new | :00:58. | :01:03. | |
Chelsea, he is going be there for two years, and give him time, and | :01:03. | :01:09. | |
maybe finish mid-table next year as a building process. People flock to | :01:10. | :01:15. | |
talk -- like to talk about money back Manchester City, but in that | :01:15. | :01:19. | |
situation when the Mancini did back in, the end is to be exactly that | :01:19. | :01:24. | |
and look at the rich old cent. were right. But there are big | :01:24. | :01:26. | |
characters in most dressing rooms and a lot of it is down to man | :01:26. | :01:30. | |
management and how you handle those players. The rumour is that he is | :01:30. | :01:37. | |
not a great communicator in the dressing room. I think Roman | :01:37. | :01:40. | |
Abramovich has gone for him thinking he was the new Mourinho | :01:40. | :01:47. | |
and it has not worked. Renewables in town this week, surprise, | :01:48. | :01:55. | |
surprise. There's an England job available, there is perhaps the | :01:55. | :02:00. | |
Spurs job available, there's even a Chelsea job available. Let us get | :02:00. | :02:05. | |
marine yet in a picture in London! Now to the rest of yesterday's | :02:05. | :02:15. | |
:02:15. | :02:25. | ||
night antics are true, he worked hard to appease the wrath of his | :02:25. | :02:30. | |
manager. He put on a show of his own against Bolton. He is | :02:30. | :02:33. | |
unimpressed manager said if he had only got an early night he might | :02:33. | :02:43. | |
:02:43. | :03:02. | ||
get a chance through their impressive Japanese teenager, | :03:02. | :03:12. | |
:03:12. | :03:33. | ||
Miyaichi, but it was all about goal. Swansea now exit 11 points | :03:33. | :03:43. | |
above the dotted line. The visitors were hoping to spot -- stop the rot | :03:43. | :03:53. | |
:03:53. | :04:21. | ||
a premature end. He got a straight end for this challenge. Swansea | :04:21. | :04:24. | |
played half an hour with only ten men as Wigan tried to make the | :04:24. | :04:30. | |
extra man count but couldn't. David Dunn proved the undoing of | :04:31. | :04:40. | |
:04:41. | :04:49. | ||
Aston Villa are to salvage a vital particularly busy day, so here is | :04:49. | :04:55. | |
to you, Mr Robinson, for keeping Blackburn in contention. Saved by | :04:55. | :05:05. | |
:05:05. | :05:29. | ||
Robinson twice! Some harsh words clean sheet for Blackburn but all | :05:29. | :05:35. | |
the plaudits to Robinson, surely England's number one, for two, or | :05:35. | :05:40. | |
three. A good point away from home for Everton but QPR avoid defeat | :05:40. | :05:50. | |
:05:50. | :06:05. | ||
Royston Drenthe! But Royston Drenthe became the villain of the | :06:05. | :06:13. | |
piece with this challenge. The QPR owner sitting amongst the fans is | :06:13. | :06:18. | |
has enraged as every one of them. It is in! The goalkeeper came but | :06:18. | :06:26. | |
did not claim. Off the inside of the post! And off the post again! | :06:26. | :06:36. | |
:06:36. | :06:38. | ||
Staggering. Royston Drenthe has up 59 shots on goal this season. | :06:38. | :06:48. | |
:06:48. | :06:53. | ||
Matthew Etherington was class in a his goal tally and Peter Crouch | :06:53. | :07:03. | |
:07:03. | :07:09. | ||
complaining bitterly that the throw-in should have been a threat | :07:09. | :07:17. | |
to them, but from it, Etherington burst through. We have simply run | :07:17. | :07:23. | |
out of things to say about Robin van Persie. Two more goals and | :07:23. | :07:27. | |
three more points for Arsenal. Suarez provided a major talking | :07:27. | :07:33. | |
point. We decided this is a penalty. Liverpool have not been great at | :07:33. | :07:43. | |
:07:43. | :07:43. | ||
the us all season. Dirk Kuyt. Saved! Say it again! A really good | :07:43. | :07:53. | |
:07:53. | :08:18. | ||
Liverpool, you you could say, should be three up by now -- we | :08:18. | :08:24. | |
have only played. Robin van Persie yet again, he wells? This is what | :08:24. | :08:29. | |
Lewis a virus can do, and Liverpool were impressive throughout. -- Luis | :08:29. | :08:39. | |
:08:39. | :08:51. | ||
31st time this season. That is instinctive, magnificent van Persie. | :08:51. | :09:01. | |
:09:01. | :09:05. | ||
We have already had put very's Goal of the Month, Michelle Wie do the | :09:05. | :09:15. | |
one for March now? -- shall we took March? That is such a difficult | :09:15. | :09:20. | |
technique. You can see his eyes have not moved from the ball, it is | :09:20. | :09:30. | |
:09:30. | :09:33. | ||
sensational. Expectation at Arsenal. They had AC Milan, 4-0 down on | :09:33. | :09:41. | |
Tuesday night! We start with their headlines for our finish. It's | :09:41. | :09:44. | |
three and easy as United make Spurs suffer at the Lane. It's a | :09:44. | :09:48. | |
demolition derby - two red cards, as Shola's late show sees honours | :09:48. | :09:53. | |
even at St James. Blast-nost at the Cottage as Pavel hits a treble as | :09:53. | :09:58. | |
Fulham whallop the Wanderers. And it's the fall of another Roman | :09:58. | :10:05. | |
Empire as AVB gets the chop. United again respond on a Sunday to | :10:05. | :10:09. | |
close the gap back to two at the top. Spurs are third but Arsenal | :10:09. | :10:12. | |
are now closing in. Newcastle stay sixth after that point and Fulham | :10:12. | :10:17. | |
move up into fantastic eighth. In the other half, Sunderland stay | :10:17. | :10:20. | |
12th - but that 5-0 hammering sends TC's men into the bottom three, | :10:20. | :10:24. | |
where the dogfight is set to continue until the end of the | :10:24. | :10:30. | |
season. Here's some things you may have missed. | :10:30. | :10:40. | |
Now, take note of this Arsenal fan... He'll be back later. He's at | :10:40. | :10:45. | |
slip be bonkers! On the pitch, relief for the linesman. At the | :10:45. | :10:54. | |
Etihad, the mascot milks his part. Back with our friend at Anfield... | :10:54. | :10:57. | |
And finally, the commenator's outake of the week award goes to | :10:57. | :11:07. | |
:11:07. | :11:09. | ||
John Roader. Plenty of Endeavour from both team so far. Not a great | :11:09. | :11:16. |
